My late little dog, Lima Bean, came from a shelter. You too can support the health and welfare of majestic beasts like this one.

Saturday Night: Animal House Fundraiser Brew Fest. Enjoy beer from 30 different breweries (or a smaller sample if you want to walk out on your own!) and support a local no-kill animal shelter. Our beloved Heiditown is having a giveaway of 2 free tickets. Head over there for your chance to attend for free.

Sunday Morning: WAFFLE FEED! I feel like I shouldn’t need to explain the importance of attending an event that specializes in feeding you platters of waffles. Nothing takes me back to my prairie upbringing like the promise of food in return for charity. Donate to Trees, Water & People in return for batter, butter and syrup.
